lyrics

I watch the dimly lit interstate
Come and go
And think it's often like the way
That I treat emotion,
No thought.
I don't mean to be so harsh.

I'm trying to be good.
But you're breaking my bones.

I need company
The foreground is marked out
And I am drowning in whats left
Behind.
I needed you tonight.
The background is becoming
The only thing that makes sense to me anymore.

You and I,
Like crashing cars in silence.
From the debris, you take my head
Into your hands.
And smile.

Your head was hollow enough to hear the sound
Of a thousand thoughts.
Your ribs encased your heart like iron inside
Of a burning building.
Replay the scene.
Where you and I are crashing.

You let me in and you let me know,
I wasn't needed anymore.
